Gracemere Market Report 27/07/2022
GRACEMERE CATTLE SALE WEDNESDAY 27TH JULY 2022
CQLX Combined Agents saw a decreased yesterday with a yarding of 1,759 head, comprising of 909 steers, 540 heifers, 259 Cows, 23 Cows & Calves and 28 bulls. Cattle were once again drawn from Collinsville in the North, South to Calliope and the normal local areas. Quality was good overall with just a few small mobs of plainer cattle scattered throughout the sale. The Buying panel was light on having a couple of the major processors not in attendance this week, seen prices ease across most descriptions. With one local major processor and a few smaller operators active on the heavy cattle market. Restockers & feeder operators were also reduced, however the better-quality cattle are still meeting with good competition on the current market.
